Deep Fried Beers, owned by Johnny Osborne ’12, has been nominated for Best New Brewery by USA Today‘s 10 Best series, which is voted on by readers.

Operating within the lively New York pizza parlor Night School, Deep Fried Beers is specifically dedicated to crafting ultra-hoppy DIPAs and mouth-puckering sours. The Macrowave TIPA is a particularly boozy concoction that clocks in at 11.1% ABV, while red fruit aficionados can spring for the Sour Patchwork 2, an Imperial Sour that’s brimming with notes of raspberry. Night School and guest beers are also on tap to try.
